Always wondered about this? I see some 7300 with the 45 MHz specification, some at 50. The 7600, some at 40 I think and some at 50. My 7600 "was" at 120 MHz and so 40 MHz bus - which is what I have been taking as my cue to set the speed of my upgrade card: a PowerLogic G4 on my 7600 running at 360 MHz. Does this mean that I can run the 7600 at 400 (the multiplier is 8 if I remember?) -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
